Bedtime

I have twin girls that will be 7 months old Jan 1. One of the babies goes to bed around 10pm and will sleep until 9:30-10:00 am without waking up throughout the night. The other baby hardly naps (normally 1-2 naps a day and only 20-30 mins at a time) and will not go to bed until around midnight-1am. I give baths every other night and rub them both down with lotion but that doesnt help either. Anyone have any tips on getting her to sleep earlier?

She might be over tired by then. I had the same problem with my lo and then I started really looking for any tired cues. I found that if I waited for a yawn it was probably too late. Turns out poor little guy was ready for bed at 7:30 and we were missing the window of time. When I do this he will sleep from 7:30pm until 8 or even 9 am. Hth

Thanks for the advice! I am a college student and when next semester starts I will have to be there at 8 am and I have a 45 minute drive. There is no way I will make it if she is still on this pattern. I will sure try putting her down sooner. Thanks again!
